  • Publication number: 20250078754
    Abstract: An electronic apparatus including a display panel and a driving circuit is provided. The display panel includes a plurality of display units. Each of the display units includes a light-emitting element. The driving circuit is coupled to the display panel. The driving circuit is configured to output a scan signal and a reset signal. When a reset interval of the scan signal is transmitted in a non-display area of the display panel, the driving circuit compensates the reset signal and outputs the compensated reset signal to reset the light-emitting element.

  • Publication number: 20250080705
    Abstract: A projection device includes a light source module, a display panel, a freeform-surface reflective mirror, and a projection lens. The light source module includes a light source, a first Fresnel lens element, and a second Fresnel lens element. The first Fresnel lens element and the second Fresnel lens element are parallel to each other and located between the light source and the display panel. The display panel is arranged between the light source module and the freeform-surface reflective mirror. The projection lens is configured to transmit an image beam out of the projection device, and a direction of an optical axis of the projection lens is different from a direction of a normal of the first Fresnel lens element.
